Best Mouse Bait

[Keith]

What is your favorite mouse bait? We have tried peanut butter, nothing. Tried crackers, nothing.

What is an absolute winner to get mice to go for it.

Kraft single slices.
You can mold the pieces into enticing shapes and it really sticks to the trap.
Works every time for us.

PB works every time for me.

PB always has worked for us or a stealthy cat!

Hey, news flash everyone!
Mice like cheese better than PB.
Really.

I lived in the country all my youth. We used peanut butter and would trap 40 or 50 field mice a day sometimes.

Squirrels love peanut butter as well.

PB works best for me.......catches the little buggers overnight......maybe you're not using the right brand,

just gave up on traps and bought a cat...I'll let you know how that works...

The rats in my attic just lick the peanut butter off (even super chunck) without getting snapped!
Just imagine if they knew what would happen if they lick too hard
I've heard that a brazil nut tied to the trigger is the best bait.
I havent tried it yet, I'm going to now!
I will report back with the results
